Info for Fuchs: Violin Sonatas Nos. 1-3



Not only was Robert Fuchs an admired friend of Brahms, but he nurtured a prodigious number of pupils, among whom were Enescu, Korngold, Mahler, Wolf, and Sibelius who called Fuchs ‘a clever orchestrator, professional to his fingertips, and very happy as a composer.’ The three Violin Sonatas, composed over a 24-year period between 1877 and 1901, exemplify Fuchs’ superbly crafted and melodious grace, with soaring Romanticism spiced with occasional Hungarian color, folkloric themes, and vivacious finales.
